Nika Could Be The Most Intense Racing Movie In Years
Nika Could Be The Most Intense Racing Movie In Years-April 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:24

Nika’s one true passion is karting and she’s not afraid to fight for it—and holy crap, do they ever fight in this trailer. One dude straight-up gets headbutted in the face. Another gets kidnapped. Every lame NASCAR post-race punch has just been put to shame by this movie trailer for the Slovenian film Nika.

Here’s the film description, courtesy of the who will be showing it on April 13:

Nika’s mother’s attempts to end her career as a racecar driver only inflame her desire to carry on the legacy of her father, a professional driver killed in a tragic accident. Frustrated, Nika neglects her studies, withdraws from her family and begins secretly racing anyway. When her father’s best friend tells Nika that he’ll help her get into the Adriatic Cup race if she finishes the school year, Nika accepts. Maksimović’s fast-paced coming-of-age story brings an exciting Balkan perspective to universal themes including rebellion, understanding, and love.

We know folks go a long way to stay in motorsports, but it looks like at least one deal in Nika’s life goes belly-up. Is it Nika’s deal with her dad’s friend? Teenage love gone very, very wrong? Skeevy “I paint nudes” guy painting the wrong man’s wife?

Either way, we have to know now, because the trailer was that good. This film came out in 2016, so if you know how those of us outside New York can find the film with English subtitles, let us know in the comments.

Just when you think you can’t be more of a basic, average, uninteresting human being, you scroll through your basic, average, uninteresting internet-enabled device and read that Formula One drivers do, in fact, drink celebratory podium champagne from carbon-fiber bottles. Cool deal. The entire Carbon-branded champagne bottle isn’t solid carbon...

Please Enjoy This Car Flying 160 Feet Through The Air At Rally Finland
The consistently fastest event in the World Rally Championship is Rally Finland, beloved as much for its huge speeds as for its car-launching crests and jumps. Here’s the gnarliest one of the weekend. This is Mads Østberg, landing a good 50 meters (that’s 164 feet) from where he took off....
